Fahrenheit 451 / Bradbury, Ray

Firefighter Guy Montag is assigned to locate, confiscate, and burn books. He is content with his life and job until he discovers the valuable knowledge found within books. Now, he must decide either to continue his stale existence or flee with his newfound knowledge.

In a not too distant future, humans live a seemingly care-free existence where they're happy and productive. There is a "price" though for this life: They must place special drops in their eyes daily and follow the rules perfectly, including the rule that they never own or read books. Guy Montag is a firefighter. He doesn't fight fires though, but instead hunts down those people who refuse to follow the law and burns their books. Like everyone else, Guy has been taught that books are filled with inaccuracies and insane ideas. He continues to believe this lie until a meets someone who teaches him that the dreams in his mind can only be explained through the knowledge found in books. He also learns that rebels have come up with a new way to save books from the firefighters. When Guy's mentor, Captain Beatty, comes to realize that Guy has joined the rebellion, Guy must make a difficult decision to save the collective thoughts of the human race.

In a society in which books are outlawed, Guy Montag, a regimented fireman in charge of burning the forbidden volumes, meets a revolutionary school teacher who dares to read, but when he becomes a hunted fugitive, Montag is forced to make a choice between personal safety and intellectual freedom.

A bookburner official in a future fascist state finds out books are a vital part of a culture he never knew. He clandestinely pursues reading, until he is betrayed.

A graphic novel adaptation of Ray Bradbury's classic novel about Guy Montag, a career fireman, who realizes the evils of government-controlled thoughts and sets about to change society.
